Cardiff & Vale UHB plans ME/CFS service improvement

CVUHB plans to implement ME/CFS NICE guideline

 

WAMES has been asking Health Boards in Wales what plans they have to implement NICE guidelines, whether they intend to consult with patients and how they think their long COVID service might benefit people with ME. 

Cardiff and Vale’s University Health Board’s Chief Executive Suzanne Rankin shares their plans for improved care for ME with WAMES:

@cardiffandvaleuhb

 

“As a Health Board the new NICE guidance for ME/CFS have been shared widely across services which support people with ME/CFS and long COVID. Clinicians supporting people with ME/CFS, long COVID and other long-term conditions recognise the concept of energy impairment linked to symptom exacerbation (and strive to embed the awareness within their Treatment and clinical interventions with individuals).

We have a meeting planned between the Executive Directors for Medicine, Nursing and Therapies and Healthcare Sciences to review our current ME/CFS clinical pathway and our services against the recent NICE Guidance.

Training for staff

The UHB has a Rehabilitation Improvement Programme which is focusing on how we can develop our rehabilitation services to ensure we support people with long term conditions to have better access to the help that they need, when they need it. The Rehabilitation Programme is developing ‘A Meaning Full Conversation’ Model of Care which aims to provide education and training across the rehabilitation workforce to support people with advice and strategies to manage common symptoms which may be out of their usual scope of practice. Fatigue, pacing, energy management and post exertional symptom exacerbation forms part of the model.

Rehabilitation services

At a service level we continue to develop our rehabilitation services to ensure we provide people with the education and strategies to support them to manage symptoms including fatigue. This is delivered individually and within a group setting. The group-based interventions help to facilitate peer support and learning from others with similar experiences, and service users have reported that the sessions have been very useful in helping them develop energy management strategies.

Leisure classes

We are also working in partnership with leisure to support us to deliver care nearer to people’s homes. We have trained leisure staff to develop classes and activities to support people who have long-term conditions, and to increase their awareness of common symptoms including fatigue and energy impairment presentations, to help them have the skills and knowledge to work with people and support them to return to increased levels of activity if this is their goal.

Co-production for long-term conditions support

As you are aware, we have also established co-production meetings bringing together people with lived experience of a long-term conditions, health professionals, third sectors and organisations across Cardiff and Vale to work together to ensure we are meeting the populations needs. Representatives from The Welsh Association of ME & CFS Support have attended both events to date and we have really valued their insight and contribution to the meetings.

COVID services

As we recover and reset from COVID as a Health Board we are focused on improving the health of whole population and supporting people with long term conditions to get the help they need. We are currently considering how we can develop our COVID service to broaden its access to a number of conditions including ME/CFS.

Do be assured we will keep you involved and look forward to progressing this.”

WAMES would like to hear from anyone with ME/CFS living in Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan about the service they have received since the publication of the revised ME/CFS NICE guideline in October 2021, so we can continue to work towards improving those services. #ImplementNICEmecfs   Contact jan@wames.org.uk

ME/CFS Research Priorities Report 2022 welcomed by UK Government

ME/CFS Research Priorities Report 2022

 

During 2021 and early 2022 thousands of clinicians, patients and carers throughout the UK worked together to identify areas of ME/CFS that need to be researched. An ME/CFS Priority Setting Partnership (PSP) was set up to determine what should be prioritised.

 

Over 5,300 ideas for research were submitted, then they  were prioritised.  On World ME Day, May 12th 2022 the final report with the top 10+ research priorities was published.

Now that we have the Top 10+, researchers, funders and government must work with people with ME/CFS to produce the highest quality research into these areas, and continue to prioritise ME

Gemma Hoyes, PSP steering group member

 

The UK Health Secretary responded positively and held a meeting on the 9th June 2022 to discuss ME/CFS research with researchers, charity and patient representatives, representatives from the government bodies who fund research (MRC, NIHR), and with Professor Lucy Chappell – the DHSC Chief Scientific Advisor.

“I welcome the publication of this Priority Setting Partnership which sets out the Top 10+ research priorities for ME. The Government recognises that ME is an under-researched area and pledges to support research funders and the academic community to respond to this independent report.”    The Rt Hon, Sajid Javid, MP, UK Secretary of State for Health and Social Care

Read or Download the report or listen to the Top 10+ priorities

Spread the word with these resources to tell people who have the power to make research happen.

Priority 1

What is the biological mechanism that causes post-exertional malaise (symptoms caused or made worse by physical, mental or emotional effort, which can be delayed) in people with ME/CFS? How is this best treated and managed?​

Priority 2

Which existing drugs used to treat other conditions might be useful for treating ME/CFS, such as low dose naltrexone, or drugs used to treat Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS)?​​

Priority 3

How can an accurate and reliable diagnostic test be developed for ME/CFS?​

Priority 4

Is ME/CFS caused by a faulty immune system? Is ME/CFS an autoimmune condition?​​

Priority 5

Are there different types of ME/CFS linked to different causes and how severe it becomes? Do different types of ME/CFS need different treatments or have different chances of recovery?​

Priority 6

Why do some people develop ME/CFS following an infection? Is there a link with long-COVID?

Priority 7

What causes the central and peripheral nervous systems (brain, spinal cord and nerves in the body) to malfunction in people with ME/CFS? Could this understanding lead to new treatments?​

Priority 8

Is there a genetic link to ME/CFS? If yes, how does this affect the risk of ME/CFS in families? Could this lead to new treatments?

Priority 9

What causes ME/CFS to become severe?​

Priority 10

How are mitochondria, responsible for the body’s energy production, affected in ME/CFS? Could this understanding lead to new treatments?

Priority 10+

Does poor delivery or use of oxygen within the body cause ME/CFS symptoms? If so, how is this best treated?​

The process

#WAMES_800 fundraising journey – Join us!

WAMES is going on a fundraising journey – Why?

 

We need £800 by the end of March 2023

Our income has dwindled, so we won’t be able to pay our basic bills after this year.

We are not the only charity to be facing problems. A number have been forced to close in recent years. Our fund raising journey is not of our choosing but it is vital if we wish to stay active and avoid a similar fate.

There are many ME organisations in the UK, all with different strengths and priorities. None do what WAMES does. We are the only charity where Welsh residents come together to share information and speak out for the services we need.

Why £800?

Our budget for ‘running costs’ in 2023 is:

  • Website £400
  • Insurance £300
  • Admin  £100      Total:   £800

If face to face meetings return in 2023 then we will need to find further funding  for transport and accommodation, to enable us to represent people with ME.

We will also need additional funding to build a new website, and we will explore all options for this.

How?

Asking people for money at a time of rising prices is not ideal. (A bit of an understatement!) That is why we invite you to join us during 2022. Maybe YOU have the skills we need to help us explore all the different ways that we can raise money which are free, low energy, inspire friends and family to join us or will attract outside funding. You could sign up as a volunteer, send us some ideas or organise your own fundraising action. Join us on our fundraising journey!

A new Facebook page for WAMES

WAMES launches new Facebook page

 

A few days ago the WAMES Facebook page just disappeared!

Our volunteer Jacob spent the weekend setting up a new page and over the next month we will be learning how to use it.

Some of the functions won’t be available immediately e.g. the user name is missing (@wamesmecfs).  Please help us share the new location with past and new followers.  https://www.facebook.com/WAMES-105437788854575/

All the messages and contacts we have made over the last few years have also disappeared, so we won’t be able to contact you until you get in touch again.

We’re looking on the bright side – this is a new start, with increased features and functions (eventually)! We will continue to provide helpful information for the Welsh ME community – and anyone else who is interested. Please let us know if there is any way we can improve our use of Facebook, or if you can help supply us with relevant up-to-date information. Contact jan@wames.org.uk

#WomensHealthWales Report highlights gender related health inequalities for ME

Women’s Health Wales Quality Statement calls for improved care for women with ME 

 

On Saturday 28th May, International Day of Action for Women’s Health, a report has been published by a coalition of charities and health organisations, which discusses how women in Wales have poorer health outcomes than men and urgent action is needed to ensure they receive equal care and treatment.

For the past year WAMES have been working as part of the #WomensHealthWales Coalition, made up of over 60 charities, patient representatives, clinicians, and professional bodies to draw up a plan to help end health inequalities experienced by women, girls, and those assigned female at birth.

ME affects more women than men,
in an approximate ratio of 4:1
(MERUK)

Scottish Government has a plan, UK Government has consulted on a plan for England, and now, Welsh Government has committed to drafting a plan for Wales.

Health inequalities are rife in Wales. Welsh Government’s plan needs to be ambitious in its aims to end systemic sex and gender health inequalities in Wales and it needs to be co-produced by both Coalition members, patients, and public.

What is the report about?

The Women’s Health Wales report is a collaborative, co-produced report that outlines 26 areas of healthcare where women, girls, and those assigned female at birth are disproportionately impacted. It includes a range of physical and mental health conditions and issues which might affect this population at different points in their lives and makes a series of recommendations we wish to see implemented to improve their health, lives, and wellbeing – both now and for future generations.

 

Recommendations for Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME)

The Report outlines the key issues which lead to difficulties for patients in accessing appropriate services in Wales and gives recommendations for ways the Welsh Government can contribute to the improvement in ME/CFS healthcare (p97-100):

~ Implement NICE guidance, removing GET and CBT

Ensure healthcare professionals are following the updated NICE guidance removing GET and CBT as treatments in rehabilitation clinics which include people with ME. Many patients with ME are also referred to the National Exercise Referral Scheme (NERS), but the lack of expertise or monitoring constitutes unsafe practice and has historically proven harmful to those with confirmed ME.

~All healthcare professionals should understand ME and PEM

Develop cross-team understanding of the nature and impact of people’s illness and ensure they are aware of the specific characteristics of ME so to provide appropriate patient-centred care. This includes a better understanding of ME’s main characteristic, which is post-exertional malaise.

~Develop medical pathways with the help of all stakeholders

Work with patient advocates, specialist groups, and clinicians to develop straightforward medical pathways for ME patients across Wales which should
include:

  • Sufficiently trained GPs to identify specific characteristics of ME and
    diagnose
  • Occupational therapy for day-to-day management
  • Trained community nurses who can provide care and monitoring for those
    who are housebound due to severity of condition or relapse
  • Access to additional specialist expertise wherever it is located

~Training for diagnosis

Increase training for GPs to diagnose and manage the condition. A 2016 patient survey found that over 60% had waited a year or more for a diagnosis.

~Good quality information for patients

Patients must be empowered to make informed decisions about approaches to symptom management and able to work in partnerships with their healthcare
professionals to co-design treatment plans/pathways which suit their individual
needs and experiences as part of a commitment to shared decision making.

~Support development of management plans

Urge service providers to provide support for healthcare professionals to implement
the NICE guideline’s recommendation of developing individualised energy management plans, which take account of the need for both rest & maintaining
physical condition.

~Medical training

Ensure co-produced training is delivered both to medical students and existing healthcare professionals.

~All-Wales commitment to recording diagnoses

Oversee an all-Wales commitment to ensuring GPs accurately diagnose and record incidence of ME using SNOMED system which enables health boards and service providers across Wales to understand prevalence and commission/ design services accordingly. Data collection should also include patients who have received private diagnosis or one from ‘out of area’.

~Provide guidance about equality issues 

Clearer messaging and guidance about the Equality Act 2010 and associated rights and support, including provision of independent advocacy as referenced in the Social Services and Wellbeing Act Wales 2014, part 9278 and reasonable adjustments in the workplace.

Rethinking ME: a report by the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Myalgic Encephalomyelitis

APPG on ME Report: Rethinking ME

 

The All Party Parliamentary Group on ME launched their report ‘Rethinking ME’ on Wed 25 May 2022 with the support of Sajid David MP, the UK Parliament Secretary of State for Health and Social Care.

The findings of this report highlight that there has been a long-term disconnect between the treatment deserved by people with ME and what they experience in reality.

“We view these recommendations as a starting point on which to build creative strategies across the governments of the UK, service providers and research institutions for the transformation of our society’s approach to ME.

Furthermore, we wish to see the UK take a pioneering stance towards ME research and a compassionate attitude towards people with ME at a time when we are seeing an increasing trend in the development of ME-like symptoms as a result of COVID-19.”

“People with ME require major cultural and policy change to take place within all professions associated with their care and support.”

The 20 recommendations in this report should be considered the starting position for Government policy. Summary of Recommendations:

Executive summary

  1. The UK and Devolved Governments must each conduct a comprehensive review of current ME service provision with a view to implementing the new NICE ME guideline recommendations in full and creating strategies to transform the approach towards ME in health, welfare, social care, research and education.

Biomedical research and research funding

2. Coordinated research strategies must be developed to encourage high quality ME research.

3. Government research bodies should ensure that there is a parity of biomedical funding between ME and other serious long-term conditions.

4. Centres of ME research excellence should be established to drive forward the development of effective treatments.

Diagnosis, symptom management and services

5. Health professionals should follow the new NICE guideline for ME and ensure that ME patients do not undergo any form of GET.

6. Updated ME medical training should be provided by the Royal Colleges and medical schools to relevant health professionals and students.

7. Health service commissioners should review the adequacy of current ME services and take steps to ensure that service provision is carefully planned, resourced, and implemented.

8. People with severe and very severe ME should be provided with a care package based on the basic care principles detailed in the new NICE guideline.

Children and young people with ME

9. Health commissioners should ensure that all children and adolescents with ME have access to correctly trained hospital paediatricians and long-term community services.

10. The Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) should ensure that all paediatricians receive specialised training on recognising, diagnosing and managing ME in children and adolescents.

11. An independent second medical opinion obtained by a parent or guardian of a child with suspected or confirmed ME should be fairly considered in any decisions regarding diagnosis, treatment or welfare.

12. The Chief Social Worker (or equivalent in the devolved nations) should ensure that the guide for social workers working with children and young people with ME or suspected ME (developed by social workers in partnership with Action for M.E.) is shared with all social care departments.

13. Children and young people with ME should have a care plan, in accordance with national guidelines and/or statutory requirements, combining education and health.

14. Schools, colleges and higher education institutions should make learning and assessment modifications for students with ME.

Welfare and health insurance-based benefits

15. The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) should ensure that people with ME have equitable access to welfare benefits by taking steps to (1) account for the impact of ME on the ability to engage with the application process and (2) minimise potential negative health effects associated with medical assessments.

16. Health insurers should not require people with ME to undertake GET, CBT or health assessments that require levels of activity which could produce adverse health effects.

COVID-19 and the ME community

17. Long-term health planning should consider the high number of individuals experiencing long COVID following a COVID-19 infection.

18. Health service commissioners should ensure that there is cooperation between ME and long COVID clinics to maximise patient benefit.

19. Long COVID research projects should include ME patients as a comparative group.

20. Further publicly funded biomedical and clinical research should be commissioned to investigate and compare a range of post-viral conditions, including ME

BCUHB plan to improve ME/CFS services in north Wales

Plans to improve North Wales services for ME/CFS

 

WAMES has been asking Health Boards in Wales what plans they have to implement NICE guidelines, whether they intend to consult with patients and how they think their long COVID service might benefit people with ME.

Claire Jones, the Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board’s Long COVID Service lead tells WAMES how they are planning to extend the Long COVID service to provide improved care for ME in north Wales:

“I can confirm that we are currently in discussions both within BCUHB and with partners and leaders from across NHS Wales as a whole. These discussions are looking to develop a service model which will enable BCUHB to increase the capacity and range of support available to people with ME/CFS whilst also preserving the critically important elements of the existing service such as specialist assessment, diagnosis and individually tailored support.

Our intention is to ensure that going forward people with ME across North Wales will be able to access the full range of support/intervention identified in the new NICE guidance such as domiciliary visits, services with close links into social care support, Occupational therapy support; all of which are currently unavailable in the existing BCUHB ME/CFS service.

As you quite rightly say there is significant overlap between ME/CFS and Long COVID and we echo your sentiment that there is a real opportunity here to develop services and expand this model to others who have similar symptoms/conditions.

We are passionate about co-design and co-evaluation of services. We work closely with our Long COVID Lived Experience Group who supported the co-design of the Long COVID Pathway here in BCUHB and who continue to provide valuable feedback and perspective to us as clinicians.  We think it is important and would be very helpful to bring in ME/CFS lived experience representation as we progress our service model.  [We will] contact you again to discuss this further as the plans for this model move forwards.

BCUHB Long Covid service

For context, it might be helpful to first provide a little bit of background to what BCUHB is currently offering for Long COVID – our multidisciplinary team provides full biopsychosocial assessment, referral to appropriate diagnostics and secondary care services as indicated and an individualised plan for management of symptoms and support for adapting to life with a long term condition. The support for symptom management which we provide uses the energy envelope approach and tools such as activity diaries. We provide in-depth support for the use of these tools. PEM/PESE is very common among people with Long COVID so this is an issue which we spend a lot of time supporting people to develop their understanding of and finding ways to work with.

The Long COVID service is delivered across the whole of North Wales in community venues with the aim of providing support as close to home as possible.  The service to date has received positive feedback particularly in relation to patients telling us they feel supported, listened to and their symptoms are validated.

We recognise that while Long COVID is seen as a ‘new’ condition in that it has come about as a result of COVID-19, post viral illnesses in the wider context are not new.  All patients, regardless of diagnosis/cause of symptoms should be managed on an individual basis, taking into account what matters most to the individual and tailoring support and interventions appropriately.  Like you, we see Long COVID as an opportunity to highlight the requirement for services to support post-viral illness in a wider context.”

More about BCUHB’s Long COVID service

WAMES would like to hear from people with ME/CFS in the Betsi Cadwaladr UHB area about the services they have been receiving since the revised NICE guideline was published in October 2021, so we can continue to work for service improvement. #ImplementNICEmecfs    Contact: jan@wames.org.uk

Aneurin Bevan Health Board plans ME/CFS pathway

ABUHB plans to implement ME/CFS NICE guideline

 

WAMES has been asking Health Boards in Wales what plans they have to implement NICE guidelines, whether they intend to consult with patients and how they think their long COVID service might benefit people with ME.

  ABUHB’s Interim Chief Executive Glyn Jones shares their plans for improved care for ME with WAMES:

“Thank you for your email and questions about our plans for pathways for people with ME/CFS, particularly in light of the NICE Guidance and learning from Long Covid. I would like to assure you that I understand and share your hope that these lead to service improvements for people with ME/CFS.

We are planning a process of engagement across the Health Board,  reviewing our existing services and conducting a gap analysis. We will establish a NICE implementation group to develop a shared pathway which will report to our Clinical Standards and Effectiveness Group. The proposed timescale is to begin dissemination of the NICE Guidance in July 2022 with the Implementation Group meeting in the autumn.

Aneurin Bevan University Health Board covers the areas of Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Monmouthshire, Newport, Torfaen and South Powys. [ABUHB]

I would like to reassure you that our specialist staff take the issue of energy management and symptom exacerbation very seriously. A common difficulty is people pushing themselves too hard, trying to force their recovery and causing increased fatigue and setbacks. Our Post COVID Recovery Team for example, is careful to offer individualised interventions with a bespoke plan for each patient to help them to live as well as possible within the very real limits caused by their condition. Part of our larger project will be sharing best evidence based practice in chronic fatigue across the Health Board.

We have ambitious aims to improve pathways from accurate diagnosis, through to rehabilitation and access to in and out of work benefits.

I trust this information is of assistance.  Kind regards
